Absolutely. If they are the size wrappers the rest of us got you'll be able to get four rolled from one leaf. Super stretchy when you let the water fully absorb into it. Like CT shade leaf, it will stain if water is left to bead and stand on it so, shake of any excess and allow it to absorb in for at least a few hours if its not already stretchy to begin with.Quote:

I think you're just taking the bands off of commercial cigars and then clipping them to slightly different lengths :)
But srsly, nice work Marc!
..close but, no cigar. .. not really. had to use a binder on the last one.

I ran out of prepped wrapper again but, used the new Vuelta Abajo Binder on one instead.

You know those scraps you throw out from the bottom side of the wrapper?
